Hi Darlene,
Back to this one you sent yesterday. John Walter Gray probably did remarry
since his wife and son died so early. So you might be on the right track for
this to be him in 1920.
In 1910 John Walter lists his occupation as
Braking Railroad
This John W. Gray says his occupation is Engineer, Stationary Engine

I am not sure what a Stationary Engine is but does it sound to you as if the
occupations sort of go together????
Take care - Emma
